About Me
Jazz drummer and leader of The VJE
The VJE leader Josh Feldstein has been a jazz drummer for more than 30 years. A native New Yorker who grew up on the NYC jazz scene, Josh formed the VJE in 2006 as a local jazz group in the Danbury, CT area. The straight-ahead jazz group – which paid homage to the legendary music of the famed Verve record label – soon took off with a large local following. After many years, at the prompting of VJE fans, the band recorded its first album in 2012, aptly titled “It’s About Time,” which hit #5 on the national JazzWeek radio charts in 2013. As an encore, in 2014, Josh guided the band through the recording of its second album, “East End Sojourn,” with famed guest guitarist Peter Bernstein joining the studio date. The album achieved significant status with jazz radio, the VJE reaching #8 on the national JazzWeek charts. The VJE's third album, “Perimeter,” was released to significant acclaim in 2016. The VJE's 2017 album, “Swing-A-Nova,” spotlighted Josh on drums and the VJE rhythm section, reached #6 on the national charts, and was named a Top 100 Album of 2017 by JazzWeek. Josh Feldstein was born in Manhattan, has studied with drum legends John Riley and Joe Morello. and received his BA degree from Queens College, City University of New York.
